Youri Baas’ coach, linked with FC Porto: “I don’t know what will happen” | OneFootball

Michel took advantage of the end of the match to clarify his position on Youri Baas. The Spanish coach intends to keep counting on the defender, although he admits a transfer is possible. “Youri Baas has Ajax DNA. Of course I don’t know what will happen, he could leave… But I want him to stay with us,” he said.

The coach also explained that Baas’s absence from the starting lineup was not related to transfer rumors. After the match against Sion and a brief recovery period, the coaching staff decided to manage the player’s physical condition. “We decided that in this match it was important for him to manage his workload. He is fine now, but he had an injury. We have to keep him fit because Daley Blind is injured,” he added.

Francesco Farioli, current FC Porto head coach, worked with Baas during the 2024/25 season, when he was in Amsterdam.
